Verified issue does not already exist?

What happened?

I'm running Actual v25.3.1 from a locally hosted Docker container. The client OS is Ubuntu 24.04.

When hovering over the scrollbar in the account list, the scrollbar stays at its initial width (7px) and does not expand, making it very difficult to scroll (w/o a mouse wheel) and view/access accounts. This behavior occurs in Google Chrome (v134). In Firefox (137), the scrollbar expands as expected and is easily grabbed.

Here's a video demonstrating the behavior:

I've been looking around, but I'm still not familiar enough with the codebase to draw any useful conclusions about the issue or a solution. I'm not able to find an explicit, global (i.e. not theme-specific) rule setting ::webkit-scrollbar to 7px... so I'm not really sure how it's getting set to that (super thin) initial value anyway.

How can we reproduce the issue?

  1. Using Google Chrome, access Actual Budget where account list height exceeds vertical view.
  2. Hover over scrollbar.
  3. Try to click/grab scrollbar manually... it's harder than a ring toss at the circus. :-)

Where are you hosting Actual?
